Conference Paper
This paper investigates the generation of personal biometric data, encryption of data, and the storage of such data in a cloud based database. The data generator simulates the movement and action of an active person for detailed analysis in other projects. Included is a report on the performance of the data generator implementing different data enc...

In this paper we discuss several capstone student projects conducted by the students at University of British Columbia, Okanagan campus (UBCO) and at Okanagan College in different years. The aim of the projects was to demonstrate how end-users could update code for an industrial application (an algorithmic trading system) without any programming sk...

... About 7 years ago we started parallel programming and automatic code generation as small applied research projects within our capstone framework at the Computer Science Department of Okanagan College, and also at the UBC Okanagan Campus , [17] [18], [19], [20]. Students enjoyed projects within capstone project-courses [17], [21], [22], [23] and several projects resulted in student research papers [24], [25], [26], [27]. Starting from 2016 we also accepted freshmen students to the parallel programming and automatic code generation small applied research projects [28], [29], [30], [31], [32], [33]. ...

... Since 2005 we have searched for new solutions and pedagogical approaches in COSC courses in our Computer Information Systems (CIS) diploma and Bachelor of Computer Information System (BCIS) degree programs. We had many department meetings to discuss students' performance and achievements, especially in COSC 111-Computer Programming I, COSC 121-Computer Programming II, COSC 224-Projects in Computer Science, COSC 470-Software Engineering and COSC 471-Software Engineering Project Project courses [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6], [7], [8], [9], [10]. We were concerned about an apparent low motivation factor in the students and high attrition rate within our institution's first year programming courses COSC 111/121. ...
